Classy, not quite. Their student budget for CA residents is $46K/yr, with $21K of that being tuition. It used to be a bigger differential betweeen in-state/out-of-state (like $15K vs $31K), but the state's current financial situation has resulted in tuition increases.

That's great news! I'm so happy for you. And you deserve it. Sounds like they really want you. I know the money is a big deal.... but I would suggest that you consider which school is really best for you and not let the money buy you. Just my two cents... and don't in anyway want to belittle the great news you got today.

And if you're worried about Chicago or Wharton, just accept Anderson before March 1 and then make a decision later if you get in to Chicago or Wharton. I know, it kind of sucks holding a seat when you might not go, but that is what people do when they go on the waitlist somewhere. And, if you do opt for one of the other schools down the road, it'll open up a spot for someone on the Anderson waitlist!
